You were also able to type out a message and send it using a single hand, you only needed to recharge the phone once a week, and it didn't shatter like an icicle if you so much as sneezed at it, it was cheap and it didn't spy on you. Smart phones is the dumbest thing that happened to humanity.
Once a week? Those things could go pretty much forever on a single charge so long as you weren't making calls, even with batteries that had a tiny fraction of modern capacity due to their simple hardware.
Nowadays even a completely idle smartphone on extreme power saving mode is lucky to last a couple of days, especially if you don't/can't disable the vendor-mandated bloatware that periodically wakes it up to phone home. When used regularly, it's not uncommon for a phone to drain within a single day.
Sometimes I miss the simple, rugged designs - right up until I remember how much better smartphones are at literally everything else. Still wish companies would get the memo and focus on bigger batteries rather than smaller phones, though.
